"What is on the screen now?" - "Oh, there is this lovely vase with the dried rose you once gifted me standing on it!"
Absolutely hilarious 😂 well done 😂😂😂😂
hahahaha hilarious!
lol
Dude in the glasses should never be allowed on a plane, just in case someone’s needed to land it..😂😂
Or anywhere else where he has to follow directions.....
So true
Agreed!! Too much focus on “alpha” “papa” “confirmed” “affirmative” “negative” and not enough attention on actually following directions. Couldnt believe he started adjusting descent rate instead of adjusting altitude, RIGHT BELIW THE FREAKIN’ ALTITUDE READOUT!! LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
...any landing you can walk away from his a good landing. Or, so I've been told.
He's "fully retar-ded."
Anyone else screaming at the screen "Henry noooo" ha ha. Well done guys, that was great fun to watch.
xd, yea
Not yettttttt
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh my god Henry nooooo
I said “not yet...not..damnit"😂😂😂

after 359 😂
He must be a flat earther
@@AustralianOpalRocks Nope, just your typical yank
To be fair, there are a million things in a cockpit and its not clear that he knew what button he was using. Also, I think most passengers would not know how plane navigation works. Give him a break.
Think he's an American.
@@gavinwilkinson3722 and?
Flight simers would appreciate this opportunity sooooo much more! What a dream it would be.
Literally my dream 😂
Flying a plane is a very sensory experience though. I would probably struggle landing an airliner even with my 62 hours of flight training. The simulator can be very good for learning procedures though. Especially with vatsim.
You can go fly one of these sims as a non-pilot, quite a few companies offer it around the country as an experience day
we would land so easily even Captain would ask: are you a pilot? you kidding me right😅 XPlane 10,11,12 Sim Pilot here
Well, I would not be surprised if there are a few museums, and private enthusiast organisations/companies, within a reasonable distance to you, that have simulators that
are more accessible than the professional commercial companies.
I have the fortune of living an hours drive from a museum with a handful of "rescued" older simulators. A DC-10, an A320, a Convair 440, a Saab 35, a "toy" Saab 39.
And a LinkTrainer. None of this is for free, of course, but prices are within reason.
It makes for a fun day-trip with friends... had I any... 🙂
Fortunately the pilots were able to set up the approach in the MCDU before they keeled over, great job by all 4 of you. Next video is Autopilot off at 1000 ft 😀
Won't the approach procedure be already programmed into the MCDU when they get the IFR clearance?
@@spicyweaselI’m not a pilot,so please correct if I’m wrong. I would imagine if they are landing at the airport in their flight plan then they would have preprogrammed before pushback and takeoff. But as most runways do not have cat 3 ILS, I would imagine ATC vectoring them to an airport with a cat 3 ILS runway.
Not to mention that the current plan in the FMC may be set up for an approach such as RNav, so in both scenarios the computer would need the approach reconfigured.
@@thesaltybrit9321 You're correct! Mostly, IFR plans are planned using ILS CAT 1, so only the final is automatic while landing should be manual. And in other cases most of the approach phase needs to be manually coordinated.
Since this situation is very rare and depends on the current state of events, I believe the ATC or a qualified trainer would help out the emergency by providing instructions on setting up the FMC to a nearby airport, or by giving vectors for the PIC to enter into the autopilot system all the way until very short final.
This clearly shows the absolutely incredible technology that is present in these planes. Apart from the incredible stress, this is what it takes.
It demonstrates just how complex flying something like this is and the knowledge the pilots need. Fascinating.
Well the funny thing is most airliners are equipped to do a Cat IIIc ILS and autoland. It would be easier to talk the person through configuring the Flight Management System (FMS) and Mode Control Panel (MCP) so the plane can navigate the waypoints by autopilot, descend, control speed, the whole smack down to at least the flare if not also the landing and rollout depending on equipment in the avionics (options installed). The pilot would only need to know when and how to lower flaps and how to set the parking brake and shut down the engines once stopped on the runway, which is literally one lever (Boeing) or knob (Airbus) and two switches on the center pedestal. I could talk a kid through it. The real question is what commercial flight would not have even one avid flight simmer or actual GA (or military) pilot on board. Both are more common than you would realize. The simmer with experience in the type would know how to manage the aircraft systems and avionics, and an actual GA or military pilot would have the real world stick and rudder skills and an airman's eye and possibly some complex avionics knowledge so I think either could manage it pretty easily.
Henry not only needs to listen properly, he also needs to give one worded answers via the radio instead of rattling on.
that what i was saying he thinks pilot actually say it like like. they got me hearing madeup words by henry such a wtf moment
True, but then he's not a trained pilot.
That’s affirmative !!!!
Yep. A classic case of imposing what he thinks is the right thing (even though he's utterly ignorant about the situation) instead of just doing what he was told. It's a lesson for people to learn no matter what the situation.
God i hope im never on a place in an emergency with Henry on board
Henry is that guy in movies that presses the wrong button and kills everyone.
@@domedsky💀
He’ll be like “I’ve done this before !!” And run to the cockpit lmao
Henry would necessarily fall into the hijacker category and need to be incapacitated and restrained.
Ok, for any future flights I go on, I'm gonna ask if Henry is on board first... 🤣
Henry is an excellent case study of a “Dunning Kruger”effect.
Poor Henry
Or maybe you are ? Nothing shows he actually thinks he's skilled. He might just take the role seriously and apply what he saw in medias.
Every flight sim nerd gonna be laughing at this 😂
Year for sure 😂
Damn right lol

As an air traffic controller, what I would like to mention is that hardly any air traffic controller in this world would be able to give such detailed advice on what is to be done in the cockpit. The only way a scenario like this could work out would be that ATC somehow finds and calls a pilot to come and help to set the aircraft up via radio telephony. Also, different aircraft from different manufacturers differ in such a way that when you get the wrong pilot, he/she wouldn’t be able to help much because the names and locations of all the switches, displays and indicators vary widely, even though the working principles are similar.
The job of ATC is to call pilots continually. Not sure why it would be a struggle.
@@AK-nb6hzthey are not pilots they will have no idea how to land a plane 😂 , even if the controller flys, the differences between aircraft will mean they still wouldn’t know unless they had flight time on that type.
@@thesaltybrit9321 Who do you think the Air traffic control officer is talking to? These magical people they're talking to can talk back.. And they definitely could help.
@@AK-nb6hzthe pilots ATC are talking to would be flying their own airline in the sky worrying about their own flight. original comment is saying ATC would need a pilot not on duty to come in and give instructions.
@@Amuzze If an airline declared an emergency and both pilots were incapacitated, there's no way any other pilot wouldn't just load up a holding pattern in order to help. Pilots on the ground can transmit too although range is limited.. There's a whole collection of pilots in a briefing room at any major airport too who could easily be invited up into a tower to assist.
I would love to do this (in the simulator obviously) I'm a keen flight sim enthusiast. I love flying the study level Fenix A320. I have spent tonnes of hours learning how to set up the aircraft from cold and dark and can (fairly) confidently fly entire flights.
Fun fact: when you pull out those knobs, it's changing that setting from 'managed mode' to 'selected mode'. The latter is you telling the aircraft's FMGC (flight management guidance computer) to override the pre programmed information and tell what the autopilot to do manually.
6:01 every pilot watching's heart rate went up
As someone who flew an Airbus 320 in the Flight Sim, my heart didnt stop ebcause the Autopilot was still set on 10k feet. hahahaha
@@clean713 "I repeat, the engines are fully retarded" - Guy piloting a plane some hundreds of feet from the runway
I‘ve never flown an Aircraft nor played on any flight simulator but when I saw that he turned that V/S knob to 4000 I was like STOOOOP THAT‘S VERTICAL SPEED!!! 😂
The way he continued😢
I like how the guy has concluded he might be twisting the wrong knob, but he just keeps twisting announcing that he’s twisting it as though that won’t have catastrophic consequences lol
If the pilot is incapacitated and you're worried about getting back on the ground, relax. That part is absolutely guaranteed.
oh we're getting on the ground alright
As an American, I can say without any doubt that Henry does not represent those of us who can follow directions.
😂🤣😆
Henry needs to be kicked out of the cockpit 😂
Brilliant. Buddy sits down, trips on the rudder pedal, instantly killing everyone. I saw him making the mistakes before he made them.
The girl in the video needs to get a pilots licence, she was so calm.
I know! She did really well under pressure
Thank you :)
She did awesome
nah because it's just a simulation. imagine flying 32000ft and the crew informed you that you've been selected to land the plane safely. the first second i'm sitting in the pilot seat, would be push the stick, down to 10000ft and pray for the best. just Impulsive Thought kicking in
Fair enough but how would she do, parking it at the stand? 🤣😂 sorry.
Imagine this but on IFR conditions, mountainous terrain, no auto land. I think results would be a bit different hahaha. Great video!
The pilot's face when henry pulled the levers back early 😂😅 amazing job all round! The pilot was super clear and easy to understand! And the passengers kept their cool really well! ❤😊
As the saying goes: "If you can't explain it to a 4-year-old, you don't really understand it." And this pilot truly understands what he is doing.
Fantastic video, Sunny, Matt and Henry great job and Mark you can be my wingman any time😂. Martin and Andy an absolutely brilliant production bravo.
Henry got that first day on the job energy.
i literally cried when the last one touched down after making a critical mistake.
Henry sounding like a goddamn robot
"THRUST LEAVERS FULLY RETARDED"
7700... that's going to tell all the other planes to stay out of your way.... PMSL... best explanation ever, love it!
To be fair, the auto land system landed the sim. Put them in a C172 trainer.
I agree, most of these "can a Passenger land a plane" will set them with the auto-land ... I want to see them actually manually fly it and land.
@@MrCaiobrz I have seen a video where someone tried a manual landing
As a bit of a hobbyist flight simmer, I'd like to think I would stand up and be able to do this if the need came. With jet liners these days being so sophisticated, it's just a case of following the instructions as given by the guide who is your saviour.
Great vid this, really good to see.
They would never even figure out how to communicate with the tower to begin with
Flight attendants usually have phones within the plane to contact their company. If they do this, then someone on the ground would be able to help them figure out how to key up on the mic to contact tower.
Good thing I play Microsoft flight sim
dont be sceptical Jimmy that woman would sort it
Technically the radios would be set all the time, putting the headphones on you will hear them, the trick is finding the mic key (which in all planes is on the yoke/joystick but might not be obvious)
@@MrCaiobrzThe dangerous part is that the autopilot disconnect is also on the yoke. It would be better to use the PTT on the glare shield. Less likely to inadvertently turn something important off.
But of course a random passenger probably wouldn’t know that.
Awesome video! I would love to know how the passengers would react if they had to establish radio contact first without help from the crew.
It seems very unlikely passengers would be called and more like the crew be doing it
@@England91 Well yes, of course. The chance of a passenger being called to the cockpit is near zero in a real world scenario. However it would be a nice experiment.
The radios are always set, it is not really an issue if they can establish radio contact, its more a question if they can find the mic key to speak out.
Sunny was so calm and collected. She looked like she'd done that a dozen times
Most passengers would not be able to figure out how to operate the radios to contact air traffic control. They would have no idea what frequency to call, and it could take a long time before they could contact anyone for assistance.
There are backup emergency comms.
The radios are always set in an active frequency, you don't actually need to set any frequency other than just find the mic key and ask for help.
I knew modern airliners were somewhat automated, but it's pretty shocking just HOW automated they are. And all is well with these automated systems until an errant line of code causes problems....
Great job to the 3 pilots!
What an awesome video!! Loved every minute of it
The main issue with this scenario is getting the initial comms with the tower, you won't be on hand-held radios as shown here and would need to use the aircraft comms system. Unlikely someone would walk into the cockpit and know where the PTT (Press to Transmit) switches are?
Henry- The new spokesperson for Ron Popiel’s Mr. Microphone. Talks the most, says the least😂
This was great, but in 99.9% of cases the plane will crash unless SOMEONE knows how to initially contact ATC in the first place. I wouldn't have a clue tbh, and I've spent years playing sims, just on a surface level. I'm 70% sure I could land the plane, 60% sure I would destroy the undercarriage, 40% sure I'd kill someone and 100% sure I'd f**k it up regardless.
Henry not allowed to drive his friends around anymore
Headphone with a Mic❌ Walkie Talkie✅
I love these types of videos! I am training to be a pilot and I have always loved aviation.
What a ride this was. Nooo Henry 😅 lol. Fantastic content guys.
I was lucky enough to use an F15 simulator when I was stationed at SJAFB in North Carolina. The person running the simulator had me attempt landing several times and I crashed every single time. It's a lot harder than it sounds.
This is why I will always volunteer myself, even with my disability and reduced clarity in my speech. It is essential in critical situations that we adhere to 3 way repeat and read back.
If you're into football this is why during the infamous Liverpool v Tottenham game at the beginning of the 23/24 season, Simon Hooper the on field referee and VAR Darren England got it so wrong, none of them, partly due to poor PGMOL protocols, confirmed what was actually happening, nether of them stated what was being checked, or repeated/questioned what was being checked, there was a lot of "yes mate's" said while both assumed they were talking about the same thing when in fact it was the complete opposite. It's worth listening to the dialogue even if you're not into football to understand the importance communication and repeating information so all parties know they are on the same page.
This is why Henry struggled throughout, yes or affirmative alone has no meaning, nor did it give Cpt Mark any feedback so he could've been in a better position to correct or aid Henry, and for Mark, he should have worded it so retarder was earlier in the landing dialogue, "when you hear retarder, and only when you hear, these are the controls you operate...", I think with Matt and Sunny the instructions must've been clearer, but if Henry had done a read back before his actions, despite the radio interference, the potential problematic error, depending on the airport approach could've been avoided.
I do think it really matters who the assistant is though, they need to be calming, personable and have clarity with giving instructions. Anyone who has given family members tech support over the phone knows the struggle, I always ask do you see this, what did you just do, especially when I'm getting no feedback, so I can keep track of the steps taken. Every person training to help land a plane should have to do "family member remote tech assistance", if they can survive that ordeal, they'll be fine helping a rando land a plane haha.
What annoys me is when people act like they know stuff and then mess it up worse than expected
Affirmative
for real. Like the third older white guy. He keeps saying shit like “Roger, affirmative” and “standby” like bro just say yes or hold on. and the worst is when he kept moving the knob for the rate of decent omg i clenched my ass so hard u just wanted to smack his hand and say “stop touching shit when you ain’t supposed to!”
and when he put his hand on the thrust levers and said “hand in place on thrust levers” and just instead of listening he decided to pull the thrust back all the way then when the guy said “no dont do that-“ he just said “thrust levers retarded” like oh my god it is terrible.
and then he said mission accomplished….. this isn’t a video game bro what😭
@@ReesesPeanutDoggerExactly it's like don't act like you have some experience and use 'the terminology' and make a big picture of yourself and then be awful in reality..
As a pilot in USA i was told by the FAA at a meeting right after 9/12 to identify myself as a pilot when checking in for a flight so they can make a note in thr passenger manifest in the event of an emergency. Obviously i would not be type rated in the a/c i am a passenger on, but i would be able to manually fly the aircraft in IFR conditions and understand ATC communications.
Absolutely amazing video guys. Awesome production too, was hooked from start to finish 😁👍🏻👍🏻
I like how they always do these tests on airbuses because they’re so automated and easy normal civilians would have hell on a boeing aircraft like the 737😭😭
Maybe one for another vid 😏
I’d still get them to do an auto land in a 737. Set them up exactly the same way.
Autopilot is on MEL. Best of luck! 😂😂
737 would be more complicated, but it still has autoland. Put someone in a CRJ or E170/190 and see how that goes...
tom scott did a 737
I just knew that the dude in glasses was going to drop them 4000 feet in less than a minute and then I can't believe that bird still made it after he reduced thrust that far out. Imagine that being an actual situation I'm sure they would have all been a lot more anxious. I know I would be.
Our PMDG 737 flight simulators give you a realistic ability to do this for sure. I was fortunate enough to be able to experience one of these real simulators and the aircraft can indeed practically and realistically land itself given the right inputs and button pushes. Good instruction is definitely necessary and the technology is so advanced these days. Great job and video! Watch some of the flight simmers on RUclips handle some of these sim aircraft. (Myself Included) VERY REALISTIC and close enough to the real thing for you to get at least the general idea of some of the skills and knowledge necessary to be a real pilot. Real Pilots are amazing, hard working, very knowledgeable and trained in so many things us sim guys DON'T ever do and get all of us safely and reliably around the world. Say THANK YOU to the next real pilot you have the opportunity to encounter, and I hope to see you on one of my flight sims!
As a flight simmer with about a million hours, i'm always waiting for the moment to be called to the cockpit lol
by who?
A million..?
@@ReesesPeanutDogger Exaggerating, but I do have a lot for sure.
@@anthonycales9118 it's wild that someone actually got skeptical about you saying a million

Thank you 🫶

Nice from control! Bit funny scenarios and very demonstrative (y)
If I get an explanation of the flaps and thrust can't I try visual? Can always call it off if there's fuel
Contol forgot to mention the ejector
Guy in the glasses wanted to save that gallon of fuel
this was amazing, ah such a beautiful content, have to say that the woman was so relaxed it's fabulous.😄🍃
Glad you enjoyed it!
its amazing how all the buttons and knobs start to make sense. when my father took lessons i went up with him and the instructor and paid close attention from the back seat. i learned enough from watching and listening to be able to take the yoke if something happened to my father..
Maybe if possible, set a tougher challenge for 3 other would-be pilots,.. except on a twin-engined aircraft (e.g. 737 or A320),. when one engine is 50% down on power; see if they can land it.
The A320 can still auto land on one engine
@@marklangston3107 :) Shhhh,.. ;)
You can do this or you can say "hey airplane! Land at nearest runnway." ..and the plane will land itself.
6:10 ATC says: put altitude to 4000 ft. Man with glasses: It says -2900, -3000, -4000 🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆. I'm dying out of laughter 😆😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣. No one should ever let him pilot a plane ever! He first of all: turns off the autopilot by pressing the rudder peddles, then doesn't know how to press AP1 to turn auto pilot back on. Then when atc tells him to bring down altitude to 4,000 and they tell him which stick it is on the dashboard he some how 😆😆 press the other one and has it on -800, -1500, -2500 🤣🤣🤣🤣. OMG! I'm dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
😂 the best thing is he is aware of it.......
Have you considered the fact that maybe he was a stooge, planted there to increase the dramatic effect of the video! Definitely a possibility I think!
Loved this so much haha I'm impressed!!
I would love to try this
Play MSFS =p
As long as there no radio interference and you get clear directions like this you should be good. If everything makes you panic tho everyone is screwed lol this was cool to watch.
Absolutely brilliant. 👍🏻
I just want to wish you good luck. We’re all counting on you!
And don't call me Shirley!
I was a US Navy air traffic controller from 78 to 86. Last four years at NAS Whidbey Island. I was helping a friend from the Public Affairs office with a group of 10 Canadian commercial airline pilots. I took them to the A6 carrier landing simulator and arranged for each of them to get three passes at the deck. Zero sea state, daytime for two passes, nighttime for 1. One pilot managed to trap one time during daylight. This story is in no way a knock on these skilled pilots, it’s a testament to the extreme difficulty of carrier ops. Also, I mention they were Canadian only to show they had zero experience with US Navy flight ops (obviously).
Granted i have more than average hours playing flight simulator, but I landed a B1 bomber in the training simulator at an air force base (my friend's dad was in charge of the simulator towards the end of his long AF career). He set me up for a straight in approach after flying around for a bit to get a feel for everything, but i nailed it. Afterwards, I saw my approach path vs the ideal path on his computer screen and i was stayed on it the entire time and rolled out smoothly. I only brag because i know full well that i had no chance of landing without lots of help and setup with perfect conditions.
as someone with Cessna 172 experience I wonder how I would fare out.
You'd turn off the autopilot and land by hand for the thrills, right?
THIS IS A GREAT SAFETY FEATURE TO HAVE PASSENGERS KNOW HOW TO DO THIS!! WHILE AN EMERGENCY WITH A CAPTAIN AND FIRST OFFICER IS EXTREMELY RARE, IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE!!
Let's all hope our lives are never in the hands of Henry.
This is hilarious. Imagine being on approach and you gotta talk someone into landing. The checklist wouldn't be this slow. Lol.
This experiment would be far more interesting in a real plane!
Not sure we could get the insurance cover... ;)
Even knowing youre in a simulator that would be so intense. Its actually pretty cool these planes do so much stuff themselves and by just setting altitude and coords rather than going gung ho on the yoke.
😂 as a flight simmer i cna relate this was me when i started
I really loved that was brilliant,I did a flight simulator experience many yrs ago in Barnsley,the guys setup was in his house in the kitchen he had full cockpit was really good
This was great but why couldn't they just use normal coms? Using a walkie talkie makes it needlessly more difficult
This was just a limitation of the sim
@@AirlinersLounge Ah fair enough, that makes sense. I thought it was a real world professional sim used by real world pilots. It seems a shame to have spent so much money on an amazing simulator, but not forked out the relatively small cost for including a comms system
And hard to understand what is being said for the most part
It's Win 10, MDF and a bunch of Arduinos.. @@musefan12345
@@AirlinersLounge Really…
As someone who has a bit of experience with flight sims and a pretty good knowledge of navigation and controls. I think I would be able to land a plane if I had to. It probably wouldn’t be a pretty landing but I believe I would be able to do it. Although if I had zero knowledge, I don’t think I’d be able to do it.
Yes. It is called the Dunning-Kruger effect.
I was an aviation nerd who used to think the exact same thing and imagine this situation every time I was a passenger. Then I eventually became an airline pilot and realized I knew nothing back then and probably would’ve got everyone killed.
Matty boy smith 😂😂
As an aviation enthusiast and flight simmer, I know a little bit about ATC procedures and the basics of flying an aircraft, so I would reasonably be confident in my flying abilities in a potential emergency situation on board a flight if called upon to do so
For those of you that seem to be confused, modern sims are now so good, they could absolutely train a laymen to take off, navigate and set up auto land with zero actual flight experience.
We’re not talking fighter pilots here. Commercial is absolutely doable.
Almost anyone. Some people struggle under pressure.
I think it's more. "If you learnt to drive a manual car in under 3 hours, then you could learn to fly a commercial jet".
Flight Sims are popular for a reason, the right balance between challenging, fun but also learnable.
@@InsanitiesBrother Agreed. I was actually afforded the opportunity to fly a MiG29 a few years back. It was expensive (like $20,000USD) and I doubt their jets where well maintained. In hindsight, it was ludicrous to pay them for the experience. My previous experience was purely single engine. Mostly 172s and ultralights. My only jet experience was DCS.
After some basic introduction and training, I was able to take off, fly for 45 minutes and land unassisted by my instructor. Even with his mostly Russian incredibly broken English I could tell he was impressed and didn’t believe I’d never flown jets.
The ability of sims to prepare the average user is fairly incredible. As you said though, you do have to be relatively adaptable and good under pressure. Also for fighters, I’d go so far as to say healthy. They’ll really bring out any medical issues you have. I have GERD and my chest hurt for a week after flying. It was a hell of a workout.
@@systemai this isn’t actually true, believe it or not, many flight simulators, including DCS, include an option to add random failures. The best way to prepare for failure in nearly any operation, is to learn whatever machine it is you’re operating.
Real pilots will experience the same short comings with failures as well. There really isn’t much that prepares you for when something goes wrong generally. The only difference, imho, is a seasoned pilot isn’t investing all of his energy in just flying and can relax and asses the issue calmly. This certainly hasn’t always been the case as many irl pilots have died from recoverable in flight problems.
"Lower the landing gear now!"
"You do realise that will mean putting the walkie talkie down..."
All MS Flight Simulator players watching this…..no problem, I got this.
No you don't. I promise you you don't. On the Sim you know only surface level things. A real instrument rated pilot has a far far better ability to land an Airbus than a sim "pilot", even if you get a "realistic" Airbus or boeing you still won't understand ever to do

@@melxdan why? its a cool hobby, as long as someone does it for their own fun and isnt trying to show off then there is literally nothing cringy about it
@@0nemanartis430 I sometimes use flight sim. But I’m also a pilot in real life. What’s cringe is when people that strictly use flight sim to “play” around pretend to act like pilots. I’m not hating on the hobby but seems pointless to not use MSFS to its almost full simulator capability.
LMAO makes me laugh cause the dude showing the people had different reactions, but when it came to the guy in the glasses, you can tell he had enough of that guys affirmatives. But it goes to show how not everyone is capable of flying or even knowing what to do.
One thing will never change.

Great work done here❤. Why don't you make a video of them landing the aircraft manually without the AutoPilot😅
The guy with the glasses is quite dense.

Book yourself in at the sim! Give it a go
Why would a passenger ever fly any large commercial aircraft? Unless they're a qualified pilot, you would not want to have any passenger in the cockpit...
The scenario is where both of the pilots are unresponsive, someone else has to fly the plane.
better than no one isnt it
How are they going to get in and the flight assistants are trained to contact the tower and thinks
@@rusty7054 Which is NOT done by a passenger if they are an untrained pilot. In the hierarchy you have the Captain, Co-Pilot and then the purser aka a flight attendant. Flight attendants will then contact ATC which will then help them get the plane down
